Bridge Logistics buys 68‑acre Jurupa site

Bridge Logistics Properties has closed on a fully entitled 68-acre industrial site in Jurupa Valley that is slated for up to 1.5 million square feet of cross-dock warehouse space, according to the company and city planning documents. The parcel sits inside The District at Jurupa Valley, a 248-acre mixed-use project bounded by State Route 60, Rubidoux Boulevard, the Santa Ana River and 34th Street. The acquisition was announced May 7 by the Los Angeles-based logistics investor, which said it plans a large-format facility aimed at modern occupiers that need trailer parking and expansion capacity. City records show the industrial component was embedded in the project’s land-use approvals before the sale closed. ### Why does this parcel matter inside Jurupa Valley’s broader project map? Jurupa Valley planning documents show The District was approved to allow 1.5 million square feet of industrial and logistics uses on about 72.1 acres as part of a larger redevelopment plan. The city’s March 22, 2023 staff report described the site as the eastern portion of the city, adjacent to SR-60 and the Santa Ana River, with additional entitlements for housing, commercial space, hospitality and business park uses. (secure.businesswire.com) The final specific plan was adopted on Sept. 7, 2023, according to city records. DO Capital Group entitled The District and sold the industrial site to Bridge Logistics Properties, according to Bridge’s announcement. The seller will remain developer of the retail, residential and commercial portions of the broader project, the company said. Bridge said the master plan is expected to include about 1,100 residential units, 37 acres of commercial retail space, a hotel site and business parks.

The planned specifications include 42-foot clear height, truck courts ranging from 195 feet to 250 feet, 196 dock-high doors and 542 trailer stalls, according to the company. Bridge described the configuration as flexible and designed for high-throughput operations. (secure.businesswire.com) Paul Jones, managing director at Bridge Logistics Properties, said in the release that the company sees “durable long-term fundamentals” in large-format logistics locations and cited the scarcity of comparable development opportunities. Jones also said the mixed-use setting could help occupiers focused on attracting and retaining labor. (secure.businesswire.com) ### How does the location fit Southern California freight routes? State Route 60 frontage is one of the site’s main selling points in Bridge’s description of the deal. The company said the parcel sits off Rubidoux Boulevard and offers access to the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, major population centers and transportation infrastructure across Southern California. City planning documents place the industrial acreage within the same SR-60-facing edge of the larger specific plan area. (secure.businesswire.com) Bridge has been adding to its Inland Empire footprint. In July 2025, the company bought a fully leased three-building industrial portfolio in Fontana totaling 332,793 square feet for $83.5 million, saying at the time that land scarcity and local development constraints were limiting new supply in Inland Empire West. (secure.businesswire.com) ### What does this say about Bridge’s recent Inland Empire strategy? Bridge’s 2025 Fontana acquisition and the new Jurupa Valley land buy show the company pursuing both stabilized assets and future development sites in the same logistics corridor. In the Fontana deal, Bridge said it was targeting “Global Gateway markets” tied to dense population centers and freight infrastructure. In the Jurupa Valley announcement, it used similar language, describing the site as a rare large-scale industrial opportunity in a supply-constrained Southern California market. (businesswire.com) The next visible milestone is development execution. Bridge has not publicly given a groundbreaking date in the materials reviewed, but the site is already entitled within The District specific plan, and DO Capital Group remains in place on the rest of the mixed-use project, according to the company and city records.
